Vegetation may seem scarce in this village, although there are palms and other trees surrounding the plaza. But if you head up the mountain to the Raquet Club, this changes, and flowers and vines can be seen cascading over house walls, adorning the streets.
Down near the Lake you'll find familiar bushy shrubs, trees, and fields planted with corn. Other fields are planted with chayote, a vegetable very popular with farmers in this area.

In private gardens, fruit trees such as mango, avocado, orange, plum, lemon and chile are common. Some villagers grow bananas. There are many huamuchil trees that bear fruit once a year and give the village a pleasant fragrance. Tabachines, chirimolla and palms are also common here.
